What is your teaching philosophy?
There are a multitude of ways that people learn. For myself as a tutor, it is important that I identify their learning style and use it during our tutoring sessions so the student gets the most out of our time together as possible.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
During my first session, I usually like to try to ask questions that will facilitate my understanding of how that student learns. From there, I like to hear what the students would like/expect from me so that we can make sure our tutoring sessions are well-planned, well-prepared, and high-yield.
